Hi Jeri. First up, I believe that the car wouldn't run at all if you had blown the 100 Amp fuse as mentioned above. So I think you are safe as far...
Can you give any more details on what brand/model the old tires were Spartanacus? In any comparisons it's always useful to know what we are...
Hi ive, I first noticed this peculiarity with the HV battery duct several years ago, when I first released that I needed to clean the blower fan...
That's complete nonsense. Millions of people own a gen2 Prius and only a handful report this odour problem. My 2005 prius has done 230,000 km and...
Ok, so technically it's the screw head rounded out rather than the thread stripped. I find that when a small phillips head is messed up like...
Would that be Shannow over at BITOG. I know that he loves to tell the story about time he had dinner with some engineers from Castrol, and they...

Hi John. There's another method that's sometimes used, and which may be less prone to errors due to electrolyte polarisation. This method...
No, but please check the dipstick a tell us what you find.
Hi Dow. When you open the door the Pruis senses this and activates some of the ECUs in readiness to power up, this gives the relatively high...
Ok, I took a look at their site and even watched their magnatec video/ad. Is this the evidence part you're referring to? The only problem with...
Yes I'm not a fan of PTFE in oils, and it's definitely been getting some bad press lately. Slick 50 and other engine oil additives - The Skeptic's...
